why am i getting this message ??? ive included code

fred.java:31: engageDrive(int) in carFerry cannot be applied to ()
stenaFerry.engageDrive();

CAR FERRY

/* class to model a car ferry captain*/
import java.io.*;
class stenacaptain
{


public static void main(String [] args)
{
carFerry stenaFerry=new carFerry();
/* create an instance of class carFerry */
stenaFerry.currentDrive=0;
stenaFerry.bowDoors = true;
stenaFerry.closeDoors();
System.out.println("closing the bow doors");
System.out.println("The bow doors are now closed");
stenaFerry.currentDrive=-1;
stenaFerry.engageDrive();
System.out.println("Engaging Reverse Drive");
System.out.println("Reverse Drive now engaged");
stenaFerry.currentDrive=1;
stenaFerry.engageDrive();
System.out.println("Engaging Forward Drive");
System.out.println("Forward Drive now engaged");
stenaFerry.disengageDrive();
System.out.println("NEUTRAL Drive now engaged");
stenaFerry.engageDrive();
System.out.println("Opening the Bow Doors");
stenaFerry.openDoors();

}

}


CAPTAIN
/* class to model a car ferry captain*/
import java.io.*;
class fred
{


public static void main(String [] args)
{
carFerry stenaFerry=new carFerry();
/* create an instance of class carFerry */
stenaFerry.bowDoors = true;
stenaFerry.closeDoors();
System.out.println("closing the bow doors");
System.out.println("The bow doors are now closed");


(THE FAULT IS IN THE NEXT LINE)
stenaFerry.engageDrive(1);


System.out.println("Engaging Reverse Drive");

System.out.println("Reverse Drive now engaged");
stenaFerry.engageDrive(1);
System.out.println("Engaging Forward Drive");
System.out.println("Forward Drive now engaged");
stenaFerry.disengageDrive();
System.out.println("NEUTRAL Drive now engaged");
stenaFerry.engageDrive();
System.out.println("Opening the Bow Doors");
stenaFerry.openDoors();

}

}
